On the Boards

American Fiesta

We talk to Steven Tomlinson whose one-man show, “American Fiesta” is currently playing at the Vineyard Theatre.

According to the press notes: When playwright Steven Tomlinson, an obsessive collector of vintage “Fiesta” ware, sets off in search of the perfect specimens, he finds a surprising series of connections between residents of “red” and “blue” states, as well as some startling divides within his own family when he announces his intention to marry his partner. Mark Brokaw (How I Learned to Drive and The Dying Gaul at The Vineyard) directs this powerful and funny exploration of America and where it is headed.

An early version of this solo comedy-drama received its first production in Austin, Texas and won the American Theatre Critics Association “Osborn Award” for Best New Play by an up-and-coming playwright.

Time Being

We profile the new musical “Time Being” that is being presented by the Fildwith Ensemble Theatre, and speak with authors and creators Erika Stadtlander and Ion Ionesceu. Plus, actors Catia Ojeda and Marc Ginsburg perform “This is the Deal,” and actor Lauren Orlando performs “I Spend My Days.” Both songs were performed exclusively for Broadway Bullet in-studio, so be sure to listen!

According to the press notes: Time Being is an innovative dreamlike musical, in a surrealistic setting, which concerns the emotional explorations of a passionate yet frustrated group of souls attempting to make the most of their brief physical time on Earth –
and to understand the purposeful significance of the human attachments they form there.

“Time Being” is playing through May 13th. For more info and tickets click here.
